Definitions

  • the invention relates to an element for controlled growth of tissue into surgically intervened regions, e.g. for implant passageways, such an element being used to fix a prosthesis in the body or forming such a prosthetis itself.
  • FIG. 1 shows a cylindrical implant element having peripheral grooves and a central passage
  • FIG. 2 illustrates an outer socket having through holes of the same levels as the grooves of the cylinder of FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 3 shows the cylinder and tee socket pressed together to form a unit providing a tunnel and/or canal network within the periphery of the implant element
  • FIG. 4 is an illustration similar to FIG. 3 but with a diametrically wider flange on the upper end portion of the cylinder.
  • the element 10 is tubular and can comprise e.g. an implanted conduit for peritoneal dialysis (abdominal dialysis).
  • the conduit can be rigid or flexible. It forms a number of tunnel and/or canal networks 11, which are separated from the passage 12 through the element by a solid wall 13 and from the exterior surface of the element by an ingrowth zone 14, the openings of which are indicated at 15 and form circular apertures.
  • the tissue ingrowth into the tunnel and/or canal network 11 should be such that the connective tissue inside the tunnel and/or canal network 11 becomes complete and attains full maturity, i.e. the tunnel and/or canal network 11 should be sufficiently large to allow the connective tissue cells as well as the blood-vessels necessary for the maintenance of the connective tissue to grow thereinto, thus creating conditions for the generation of connective tissue fibres and matrix by the connective tissue cells and for the maturation of the components of the connective tissue and normal renewal thereof, requiring that no part of the tunnel and/or canal network 11 should have a diameter less than 30 ⁇ m.
  • the surfaces of the element 10, which are exposed to the surrounding tissue consist of a biocompatible material, titanium being an excellent material of this kind.
  • the element 10 as a whole can consist of titanium, but preferably the element 10 is coated on said surfaces, i.e. the exterior surface of the element inside the tunnel and/or canal network il, with titanium by a thin layer thereof being deposited on a substrate by vacuum evaporation.
  • This substrate can be rigid or flexible and can consist of e.g. silicone rubber, polyester or polytetrafluoro ethylene.
  • the openings 15 of the tunnel and/or canal network have sharp edges, but the edges can be formed in another way, e.g. as beveled edges on the outside of the element or inside the tunnel and/or canal network 11, or they can be rounded.
  • the connective tissue has the opportunity to mature adjacent to the surface of the element 10 and inside the tunnel and/or canal network 11 in order to achieve a reliable and permanent retention of the element by preventing the epithelium from growing down around the element at the implant passageway.
  • the tunnel and/or canal network 11 can be constructed in several different ways, e.g. as a labyrinth system.
